Hi Guys,<br><br>Am a Linux newbie and need some help setting up this UPS with NUT on Cent OS 5.6. So basically I have the following packages installed with yum:<br><br>libusb-devel-0.1.12-5.1.x86_64<br>libusb-devel-0.1.12-5.1.i386<br>
libusb-0.1.12-5.1.x86_64<br>
libusb-0.1.12-5.1.i386<br>nut-2.2.2-1.el5.x86_64<br><br>When I run service ups start I get the following:<br><br>Starting UPS driver controller: [FAILED]<br>Starting upsd: [ OK ]<br>
Starting UPS monitor (master): [ OK ]<br><br>Broadcast message from nut (Sun Nov 13 20:47:31 2011):<br>Communications with UPS pcom@localhost lost<br><br>When I run /sbin/upsdrvctl start pcom I get the following:<br>
<br>Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.2<br>Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2)<br><br>No matching HID UPS found<br>Driver failed to start (exit status=1)<br><br>and when I run lsusb I can see the UPS that it is hooked up<br>
